    I remember when everyone was saying that Cars was a little bit like Doc Hollywood...and you know, it was.

    The reviewer describes Wall-E as "arguably the best film Walt Disney has ever had its name on" and "one of the absolute best hard science fiction films made in my adult life" AND :an incredible work of speculative future mythology the likes of which, I've never seen"

    Uh huh ... and Terence Trent D'arby is better than the Beatles ...

    I'm sure Wall-E is wonderful, but come on ...

And a movie review from Harry Knowles isn't a movie review unless it includes 15 paragraphs about his childhood and how much he loved such and such a movie and blah blah blah, until he finally decides to talk about the film actually being reviewed. He has got to be the worst film critic EVER.

    All that said, I'm getting more and more pumped for WALL-E.
